Updates and Opportunities from Casa de Los Angeles!
In the hills overlooking beautiful Rosarito Beach, Mexico; Casa de Los Angeles, or Home of the Angels, is building a safe and loving Christian home for 38 children. Together, we're building a new standard of care for the most vulnerable and building a bright future for tomorrow. A literal light on the hill.

Exciting Progress at CDLA
This Spring several groups have been making tremendous progress at the CDLA site! The floor of the first floor is completely poured, an enormous new concrete tool and supply garage has been constructed, and we're working hand in hand with the city to upgrade engineering construction plans to the highest standards.

You can see lots more pictures on our Facebook page here.
The Plight of Orphans
There are some grim statistics facing children who grow up without a loving and nurturing home.

And while the trials are overwhelming, we do for one what we wish we could do for everyone. Because it makes a difference, it makes a world of difference to that one.

"Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world."
James 1:27
Come help prepare the driveway and walkway patio!
How You Can Get Involved: Join us for an Open Build Trip June 29th
Saturday, June 29th is our next one-day build trip, and everyone is welcome and invited.

We'll be working on two important projects, and we need your help. On Saturday, June 29th we'll be preparing the site for a new driveway and a patio walkway connecting the orphanage building with the tool garage.

We'll leave Sand Diego early Saturday morning, travel by caravan to the worksite, have a delicious work day lunch at the site, and a wonderful Mexican dinner out. We'll be back in San Diego Saturday night.
